Fixed Basis
Working on a fixed basis, often referred to as "fixed-term employment" or "fixed-term contract," means that you are employed for a predetermined period of time, and your employment is set to end once that time frame is reached. Unlike hourly or project-based work, where compensation is tied to hours worked or specific projects, fixed-term employment involves a clear start and end date for your employment. Here are the key aspects of working on a fixed basis:
You and your employer agree on the length of your employment contract before you start working. This contract specifies the start date and the end date, which could range from a few weeks to several years.
Your employment contract outlines the terms and conditions of your employment, including your job responsibilities, compensation, benefits (if any), and any other relevant terms. These terms are typically negotiated and agreed upon before you begin the job.
Your compensation may be structured differently in fixed-term employment compared to hourly or project-based work. You might receive a fixed salary on a regular basis, which is usually paid in equal installments (e.g., monthly) over the duration of the contract.
Depending on the terms of your contract and local labor laws, you may or may not be eligible for benefits such as health insurance, retirement plans, and paid time off. Fixed-term employees may have access to these benefits, but it varies by employer and location.
When the fixed term specified in your contract expires, your employment typically ends automatically. However, there may be provisions in the contract for renewal or extension if both you and your employer agree to continue the arrangement.
Some fixed-term contracts include a notice period that either party must provide before terminating the employment before the contract's end date.
You know exactly when your employment will start and end, providing stability in terms of job security during the contract's duration.
Fixed-term employees often receive a steady income, making it easier to budget and plan finances.
Depending on your contract and employer, you may have access to employee benefits like health insurance and retirement plans.
